This morning, I upgraded my version of Flare. The main - and infuriating - difference is that the TOC editor is showing [%=System.LinkedTitle%] for all the entries. The mouseover shows the full path and name, but that's small consolation.

How do I make it default to the more usable format of showing the text that will actually be in the output?

The screenshot shows what I see at present (even after a reboot). However, I've since discovered that if I add a topic, it's displayed correctly. Please don't tell me I have to delete and add every single topic just to see a usable TOC.

The System.LinkedTitle variable comes from a Flare feature introduced in one of the 2017 versions which allows you let the TOC entry text be determined by the title of the linked topic. However, your screen shot shows Flare 12, an earlier version which did not have this feature and so would show the variable.

Good question. I opened Flare this morning, and got the prompt to download an update, which I did. But you're right: it's saying Flare 12, whereas looking at a post I made in the forum a few days ago, I used to have Flare 2017 r3.

I just checked for updates, and it said none currently available, so I don't know what's going on. One for Support, I guess. I fear it may be a licensing issue.
